SUMMARY:The North Wellington Winter Bird Tour
LOCATION:Wellington County
DESCRIPTION:The North Wellington Winter Bird Tour is a self-drive, self-guided tour aro
 und key locations in North Wellington County. The goal is to try and see th
 e winter visitor and year round resident bird species through the region. S
 ome winter species, such as Snowy Owls, are attracted to the large, flat, o
 pen farmers’ fields in the area, which provides excellent views and lines o
 f sight for observing them. You are invited to explore the area on your own
  throughout January or February 2026. Have fun!\nhttps://www.google.com/map
 s/d/edit...\nTraveling Safely\nOn isolated country roads in winter, safety 
 depends on preparation and awareness. The quiet stretches can be beautiful,
  but they often hide dangers like black ice, drifting snow, or wildlife cro
 ssing unexpectedly. Drivers should slow their pace, keeping a steady hand o
 n the wheel and avoiding sudden movements that could cause skidding. Visibi
 lity is often reduced, so headlights should be on even during the day, and 
 windshields must be kept clear. Here are a few simple tips:\n- Use your haz
 ard lights and turn signals when slowing down and pulling over\n- Be mindfu
 l of local traffic\n- Ditches and other hazards can be hidden by snow banks
  and drifting snow. Use caution when ‘pulling over’ to ensure your wheels s
 tay on the road.\n- DO NOT trespass onto private property; observations sho
 uld be made from your vehicle or the side of the road\n- Do not harass wild
 life or play calls\n- Be sure to bring your binoculars, scopes and bird gui
 des if you have them. You can also borrow binoculars from the Guelph Public
  Library.\n- DRESS WARMLY! It will be colder than you think! Dress for the 
 weather – it’s often colder than you think, so wear lots of layers!\n- Sign
  up for free eBird and iNaturalist accounts prior to heading out.\n- Plan A
 head – Know likely birding spots and safe pull-off areas before you drive. 
 Cell phone signals can be spotty.\n- Emergency Kit – Carry essentials like 
 a flashlight, blanket, and snacks in case you’re out longer than expected.\
 n- Fuel, Washer Fluid &amp; Battery – Keep your tank at least half full and
  phone charged, since rural areas may lack services. Ensure you have plenty
  of washer fluid to keep your windows clear.
